InVT. ?124-00-00. Taken 27 November, 1735, by Samuel Buell and Joseph
Humphrey. Will dated 26 August, 1729.

I, Andrew Robe, Sen., of Simsbury, do see cause to make this my last
will and testament: I give unto my wife Sarah, during her natural life, the
use of 1-2 of my house lott, with 1-2 of my meadow lott lying in Hop
Meadow, with the east end of my now dwelling house, with so much cellar room as
she needs from year to year, and also so much barn room as to keep stover
for two cowes and sheltering in bad weather. And also I oblige my son
Andrew Robe to keep his mother's buildings and fences in repair during the
time of her widowhood. And also I give her 1-2 of my moveable estate forever,
but the houseing and land for life, unless she see cause to marry, then she
shall move off with only 1-3 of these lands and 1-3 of my moveable
estate, and shall not bring any man into my son's possessions which may cause
differences to arise between him and his mother.

I give unto my son Andrew Robe all my lands that I now possess, excepting what I have given to my
wife during her natural life, which he is not to enter into possession of
until her decease, and then he is to enjoy the same and all other my land,
both divided and undivided land, to him, his heirs and assigns forever.
Also, I give unto my son Andrew Robe the other half of my moveable estate to
pay debts and legacies withall unto his sisters. I give and bequeath unto
my three daughters, namely, Mary, Elizabeth and Amy, unto each of them so
much as to make up, with what they have already received, ?20 to each of
them. I appoint my son Andrew Robe sole executor.
